Totally immersed into Christ    
Wherefore if you be dead with Christ from the rudiments of the world, why, as though living in the world, are you subject to ordinances,
Let the Mind Of Christ be in you which elevates you above the riff-raff of ordinances and legalism.     

Dead With Christ speaks to the fact that we are immersed in Christ.     Unlike Water Baptism in which the subject goes under and comes back out, when we are Baptized Into Christ we never come back up or out.     We remain dead to the world with respect to its ability to affect our relationship with Christ.
